Deadpool & Wolverine stars Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman reunite to enjoy Euros 2024 quarter-finals match between Netherlands and Turkey

Deadpool & Wolverine’s Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman reunited to watch the Euros 2024 quarter-finals match between Netherlands and Turkey on Saturday. 

Canadian-American actor Ryan, 47, and Australian actor Hugh, 55, took a break from their promotional run to see the match in Berlin.

Ryan wore a black patterned short-sleeved shirt over a white T-shirt and matched it with blue jeans and brown shoes.

Hugh wore a tight navy long-sleeved top with matching jeans and black trainers with white soles.

Ryan has a vested interest in football and is the co-owner of Wrexham FC, based in Wales, which plays in League Two, the UK’s fourth-highest league.

Long-time friends Hugh and Ryan often take part in a jokey rivalry, which began back more than a decade ago during Ryan’s marriage to his first wife Scarlett Johansson from 2008 until 2011. 

Hugh told Daily Beast in 2020: ‘It’s gone back so long now… God, this is a classic sign where your feud has gone too long, where you don’t even know why or how it started!’

‘I met him back on Wolverine, and I used to ream him because I was very close friends with Scarlett.

‘Scarlett had just married Ryan, so when he came on set I was like, ‘Hey, you better be on your best behaviour here, pal, because I’m watching’, and we started ribbing each other that way.’

Things then ‘escalated’ when Ryan took on the role of Deadpool, proving to be a rival to Hugh’s beloved portrayal of Wolverine, with their characters meeting in X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009).

Hugh has played Wolverine, or James ‘Logan’ Howlett, since the 2000 film X-Men.

It seemed Hugh had hung up his claws for good after the 2017 movie Logan, which was set in a future where mutants are nearly extinct.

However, Hugh is back in a film which which will not alter the events of Logan or his emotional death as it occurs in a different timeline.

Deadpool & Wolverine’s trailer has hinted at a rivalry between the pair as they are shown fighting one another in a tense stand-off before reluctantly joining forces in a comedic pairing. 

Ryan and Hugh have resumed their roles as their respective superheroes Deadpool and Wolverine for the upcoming Marvel film, out July 25

Returning will be Sabretooth (Victor Creed), one of Wolverine’s greatest nemeses.

Deadpool & Wolverine was directed by Shawn Levy and also stars Matthew Macfadyen as Paradox, The Crown’s Emma Corrin as Cassandra Nova, and Jennifer Garner as Elektra.

Filming began in 2023 but took a four-month break from July to November due to the US actors’ strike.

Deadpool & Wolverine hits UK cinemas on July 25 and US on July 26.
